A Modern Mission Viejo Kitchen Remodel That Feels Like Home
This Mission Viejo kitchen remodel wasn’t just about upgrading cabinets and countertops — it was about creating a space that feels welcoming, functional, and timeless.
Our team at Unique Kitchen & Baths worked closely with the homeowner to bring warmth and sophistication into every corner — from the crisp white shaker cabinets and Calacatta quartz countertops to the soft jade porcelain backsplash and updated lighting.
The result? A kitchen that blends comfort and class — one that’s designed for real life, not just for photos.
Mission Viejo Kitchen Remodel – Designed for Comfort and Function
Our goal for this remodel was to create a kitchen that feels both inviting and practical, with modern upgrades that enhance everyday use.
This project began with a meticulous demolition and preparation phase before we brought in new cabinetry, countertops, and electrical improvements that would elevate the entire space.
Careful Preparation and Professional
Demolition To ensure a clean, efficient workspace, we began by protecting the home’s interior with plastic floor coverings from the entrance through the kitchen, along with plastic barriers and soft-taped wall coverings where needed. Once the area was safely prepped, we disconnected and removed all existing appliances, including the faucet, dishwasher, fridge, microwave, and hood — keeping each one safely stored for reinstallation later. Our team then removed the existing cabinets, countertops, backsplash, and an end cabinet by the pantry (only after confirming it was non-load-bearing). This provided a clean slate to begin the rebuild with precision.
Plumbing & Electrical Upgrades for Modern Living
The remodel included essential plumbing and electrical improvements to bring the kitchen up to modern standards. We installed a new pipeline for the sink, added new angle valves, and ensured all water connections were secure and efficient. For electrical, we upgraded two GFCI outlets, four additional outlets, and three switches, adding a dimmer switch for adjustable lighting. We also installed one new outlet to accommodate the microwave’s new location, optimizing appliance placement for convenience.
Cabinetry That Defines the Space
The cabinetry in this Mission Viejo remodel became the defining feature of the kitchen’s aesthetic.
We installed 37.25 linear feet of customer-selected RTA cabinets, approved after detailed 3D design renderings to ensure the perfect layout.
Crisp White Cabinetry with Smart Storage Solutions
The cabinets — Granada Shaker White — bring a clean, timeless look that reflects natural light beautifully. To improve functionality, we included a blind corner mechanism and installed 25 sleek handles (SRS1S 3-inch) for an elegant yet practical touch. These modern features make storage efficient and access effortless, blending utility with refined style.
Quartz Countertops & Porcelain Backsplash – A Luxe Finishing Touch
Every kitchen deserves a stunning centerpiece, and in this case, it was the Calacatta Vene quartz countertops.
Fabricated and installed from Genuine Materials GQF004 slabs (allowance of $600 per slab), the countertops deliver both beauty and durability — perfectly suited for daily use.
The undermount sink (allowance of $500) was seamlessly integrated into the countertop, ensuring a smooth, contemporary finish.
Above the counters, we installed 12 square feet of porcelain backsplash — the CTS 3×12 Kezma Series Jade, adding a subtle hint of color that complements the bright cabinetry while creating visual depth.
Appliance Installation and Finishing Details
After cabinetry and counters were complete, we carefully reinstalled the existing fridge and dishwasher, then installed customer-provided appliances, including the stove, microwave, hood, faucet, and disposal.
Each appliance was fitted to match the new kitchen design while maintaining functionality and flow.
Finally, our team drywalled, patched, and textured selected areas, followed by paint touch-ups to tie everything together.
Though the paint materials were provided by the client, the final finish was seamless — clean, bright, and ready for daily life.
